Mi-Hub

Mi-Hub wrote: Mi-hub is a new mobility experience, integrated and shared. We think that through an hubs system it is possible to choose the mean of transport, eg car sharing, car pooling, public transportation or soft mobility, based on customer needs,(comfort, cost and time). To reach an hub it is foreseen the use of an on demand last mile service provided by a shareable electrically assisted rickshaw with a pay-as-you-go rate. The substription to the service can be both "pay as you go" or a monthly/yearly fee. The customer can manage its trip through an app... Source: EIT Climate KIC's Climathon

Solar concentrated power systems

Heliopulse wrote: We make solar concentrated power systems for households. Our system has many benefits: . -it doesn’t overheat in summer, . -it works effectively in winter, . -it tracks the sun, . -it has a short pay-back period. And, what is most important,. - it is 2 times more efficient than any other solar collectors systems. We are the first, who made a concentrated solar power system for households and individual use...

Spark Sustainability

Spark Sustainability wrote: 70 % of global greenhouse gas emissions stem from consumer choices, yet none of us know how to act to mitigate our own climate impact. Spark sustainability will change that by rebranding climate awareness and climate impact; by putting the climate impact of different everyday choices into perspective and by offering simple steps for individuals to become part of stopping climate change. We provide a platform for companies with low-carbon offerings and produce data on which personal climate actions are chosen first and why... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Make textile waste biodegradable

Temu Materials wrote: We aim to reduce the burden caused by the fashion industry by degrading textile waste with the help of mushrooms. We will then produce materials, mainly leather, from the mushrooms which we will then sell forwards to our customers. Our goal is to form long lasting relationships with customers in such a way that we take their unneeded textiles and provide them with a better option... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Smart buildings heating

HeatMe wrote: Buildings are responsible for approximately 40% of energy consumption and 36% of co2 emissions in the eu, major part of it is energy requirements for heating. . Heatme is an innovative self-sustainable heat pump tech based building heating system. It uses external environment heat energy not only for building heating & hot water purposes, but also to power it self. . Like solar panels, heatme runs at no costs, and unlike solar panels, heatme runs even in cold weather and no sunny days. . On a global level, heatme will dramatically reduce the consumption of energy resources and the pollution that results from it... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

Cloop

Cloop wrote: Cloop provides opportunities for underprivileged communities (such as the urban poor, women, and persons with disabilities) to earn additional income while also reducing the amount of plastic waste reaching landfills and waterways. Cloop creates micro-enterprises in these communities and equips them with relatively low-cost and easy-to-use plastic recycling technology. Called cloopcenters, these community micro-enterprises are partnered with other enterprises in the private and public sector, who provide their plastic waste. This is processed through the cloopcenter and sold back to these enterprises in the form of upcycled plastic products... Source: EIT Climate KIC's Climathon

Clean combustion of fuel in boilers

Clean Combustion REAEGR wrote: Our goal is to mitigate climate change by producing clean energy from biomass without of harmful air pollutants such as nox. One of the main sources of harmful air pollutants such as nox is biomass boilers of thermal power generation stations. They cannot burn fuel in the boilers without excess of outdoor air but excess of oxygen in zone of fuel combustion create harmful air pollutants such as nox. We propose them to use our a low cost devices under tread mark reaegr that allows keeping sustainable regime of clean combustion of fuel close with the stoichiometric. It means significant reduction of nox formation and savings of energy, lower co2 emissions and lower operation and maintenance costs of the boilers... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

PedalaMI

PedalaMI wrote: Yezers team wants to develop a new software ecosystem (composed by a web platform and a mobile app) called “pedalami”, that can help municipalities developing sustainable mobility by encouraging the use of bicycles in cities and by raising funds for cycling paths through an innovative business model, founded on cooperation between public and private companies. The web platform of “pedalami” involves private companies for the financing of the construction project. Through our platform, companies can acquire unconventional advertising spaces on the cycle paths (existing or in construction). Those spaces will be allocated with a dynamic price mechanism and with variable durations... Source: EIT Climate KIC's Climathon
